(3° person POV)

It happened six months after Iori acquired his powers. One day, before the break in the middle of the year, five students in his school stayed until late, each one with their own reasons. At the same time, they all saw a bright light and fainted.

When they woke up, they have awakened supernatural powers. Of course, they met Iori no much time later.

However, this chapter is about their stories before they met our MC.

(3° person POV[following Genbu Fuyuki])

Genbu Fuyuki, daughter and heiress of one of the Five Great Clans that govern this village, the Genbu Clan. She’s the president of the student council ad right ow she’s in the council’s room working in some documents and is a bit distracted.

She’s a true Japanese beauty, long eyelashes with a sharp gaze, long, straight black hair that grew almost to her tights. Her eyes are of a unique purple, like her mother’s. her skin is pale white and smooth. Her body has a great hourglass figure, and her upper measures are surely around the 85 centimeters. Her height is around 1,60 meters.

This girl, admired by all in the school and the village is now distracted, bothered by a lot of things that are happening in the moment.

(Fuyuki): “The heirs of the other families are making a ruckus in the Outer Village, and also in the Inner Village. There’s also him… Hiyuuki Iori. The biggest headache of the village elders.”

She though. Indeed, she’s troubled by the village’s current situation. After a long time, the Five Clans are going through internal struggle, since their heirs are competing for the rights of inheritance. Well, her family isn’t going through that, since both her older siblings gave up on the inheritance rights.

However, the problems of one of the families is the problem of the other ones as well. And in the moment, unless you are from the original families of the Inner village, you can’t go inside the Inner Village. The reason is the inheritance of the Five Clans.

They closed the Inner Village to outsiders to not cause problems or have anyone putting their fingers in the village’s internal business. Unless you are from the Five Clans, you can’t invite anyone inside the Inner Village.

Or you can get permission from Hiyuuki Iori. Six months ago, he invited a researcher that wants to write a book about the unique self-government system of the Yuuki village. And since it’s him who gave permission, she can look around and ask whatever her wants to without any kind of limit.

Also, Iori has been spreading his influence in the Inner Village and the Outer Village, and probably right now, as the Five Clans are going through internal problems, he’s the most influent person around. not that someone would question him before.

The reason for his influence is because the whole village grew around the temple of his family, and until a certain point in the past, his family governed the village. If you were to look in the official documents, he is to be considered a great authority in this village.

After she finishes mourning on her problems, she sights with her rosy lips and get up, preparing herself to go back home. Before she could get to the door of the room, a strong light blinded her, and she fainted.

[Following Seiryuu Maria and Hitotsu Yuichi]

Hitotsu Yuichi and Seiryuu Maria stayed until late in the school together. Don’t have any dirty thought though, they are literally studying. Yuichi has been having bad notes in math, and asked to the most gentle and kind person in the school, Maria, to help him with his studies.

Yuichi is your regular popular guy, handsome, short brown hair, black eyes and pale skin, with an athletic build around 1,80 meters tall, and good at any kind of sports. He’s almost the perfect guy if his notes weren’t that bad. The reason? Games.

So, as his notes dropped, he asked to the girl sitting beside him on the classroom, Seiryuu Maria, to help him with his studies. She gave the idea to stay until late to revise some materials of the class so that she can see his level.

Maria is literally the Maria of the school. Long, wavy golden hair, blue eyes, slightly droopy eyes, gentle expression, huge breasts and fair white skin. Her height is around 1,70 meters high. She’s the mother of everyone from the school, being gentle to everyone and one of the dreams of the boys of the school.

She’s also one of the possible heirs of her family, one of the Five Clans, the Seiryuu family. In this moment, she’s sighting at Yuichi.

(Maria): “Hitotsu-san, you’re bad at this.”

(Yuichi): “Sorry…”

(Maria): “Alright, tomorrow I will give you some notes and will help you study in te library. For today, let’s go home.”

(Yuichi): “Yes. Thank you, Seiryuu-san.”

They both get up, and when they both are about to get out from the classroom, they are blinded by a strong light, and they both fall unconscious.

[Following Haruka Kouhaku and Natsume Suzaku]

These both have a simple reason, Haruka Kouhaku, the most fragile of them both, felt ill and her best friend, Natsume Suzaku stayed with her until after class. Haruka Kouhaku is a little girl. Around 1,45 meters tall, twin tail style chestnut hair and bright brown eyes is a cute girl with fair white skin.

Although she lack any kind of charm of a female body, she’s the cutest girl of the school, the mascot girl of everyone and famous for her happy mood and constant smiles.

Her best friend is the opposite of her. A tall girl, around 1,75 meters tall. Fiery, lower-back long straight red hair and bright green eyes with fair white skin. She’s clearly a half, with a beautiful face with eastern traces that give to her an intimidating air combined with her sharp eyes.

She has a lot of womanly features with a perfect hourglass figure and big breasts. She has a cold personality and she’s only open with her best and childhood friend, Kouhaku. When both of them were about to get out from the infirmary, a strong light blinded them and the passed out.

(Iori’s POV)

(Iori): “Um?”

Something broke my concentration. A strong wave of mana… way too strong to the point that I felt it from here. I’m sitting in the top of the torii in the top of the stairs of the temple, just above the board with the temple’s symbol. I can see the whole town from here.

Enhancing my eyes with magic, I looked at the direction from where I felt the wave of mana. That’s… my school? What happened? I should check it out, but I’m busy right now training, so I will send someone on my place. I can feel the those three around me. I call in a loud voice.

(Iori): “Daikage.”

A ninja shows up kneeling beside me. With his head lowered, he says:

(Daikage): “Yes, Iori-sama.”

Daikage ins one of the three ninjas that are following me as bodyguards. Well, not that I need them though. They are from a ninja clan that has relations with the magical shop of the village. After we had a little something we started a friendly relationship and they consider me valuable enough to be guarded by three of their elites.

(Iori): “I felt something wrong in my school. Go there and check out if there is something wrong.”

(Daikage): “Yes, Iori-sama.”

He disappeared. After that, I go back to my meditation.
